A music video directed by Emil Kunda & Baz Francis was released for the single. [1] [2]
The song is actually about my wonderful first trip to St. Petersburg in 2010, but I wanted the video to tell a dramatised version of what happened on my nightmare return the following year. I actually think the positivity of the song and negativity of the video combine really well and help create an overall picture of my Russian experiences. Emil's great work has a lot to do with that though.
